Here’s Something Different: A Story Time Hike for Kids

If you and your kids love the outdoors and also love to read and you're looking for something completely different, you'll love this.

If you're a parent of elementary school-age kids and feel like you are completely running out of things to do with them, this cool little hike that also involves storytelling is sure to move you right into "cool mom and cool dad" status pretty fast.

And just when you finish one hike with a story here on the SouthCoast, another hike and story are not far behind.

Wild things to stir the imagination. Our latest Storywalk features the classic "Where the Wild Things Are" by Maurice Sendak at P.J. Keating Woods in Acushnet. The story is spread along a half-mile loop trail where you can find more wild things, plus some echoes of the story, if you look. http://bit.ly/2Gzt50M #storywalk #discoverbuzzardsbay #acushnetma #storytime

"The environment is where we all meet, where we all have a mutual interest; it is the one thing all of us share. It is not only a mirror of ourselves, but a focusing lens on what we can become." —Lady Bird Johnson (1967) We may not be able to gather together to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Earth Day in person, but we can work together to protect Buzzards Bay and its surrounding lands. What will you do to celebrate #EarthDay2020? Share your thoughts with us in the comments! #EarthDay2020NB A post shared by Buzzards Bay Coalition (@savebuzzardsbay) on Apr 22, 2020 at 8:32am PDT

By the way, the Buzzards Bay Coalition is famous for its efforts to improve New Bedford Harbor and Nantucket Sound ocean waters and have been hugely successful with this life-long feat. They're a wonderful organization that Fun 107 has been proud to partner with over the past few decades.
